Perfect for a game day gathering, holiday parties, or even a casual get-together, they are sure to impress your guests. The savory sausage and flaky biscuit texture make them a crowd favorite. Plus, they can be enjoyed as a main dish or as a hearty appetizer.

One of the best things about these sausage balls is their ease of preparation. With just a handful of ingredients and minimal cooking time, you can whip up a batch in no time. Whether you’re a seasoned cook or a kitchen novice, this recipe is straightforward and forgiving, making it perfect for anyone looking to create something delicious without too much fuss.

Customizable Flavors

While the original recipe is a hit on its own, feel free to personalize your sausage balls to suit your taste. Add in some chopped jalapeños for a spicy kick, or incorporate different types of cheese like pepper jack or mozzarella for a unique flavor twist. You can even substitute the breakfast sausage for turkey or plant-based sausage to cater to dietary preferences.

Incorporating additional herbs and spices can elevate these bites to a new level. Consider adding some crushed red pepper flakes for heat or a teaspoon of dried oregano for an aromatic touch. The possibilities are endless, allowing you to make these sausage balls your own while keeping that delightful Red Lobster-inspired essence.

Storing and Reheating

If you happen to have leftovers, storing them is simple. Allow the sausage balls to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or you can freeze them for longer storage. Just make sure to separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Reheating is a breeze! Simply pop them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through. If you’re in a hurry, a quick zap in the microwave will also do the trick. However, for the best texture, the oven method is recommended to maintain that flaky, delicious exterior.

Ingredients

For the Sausage Balls

1 pound breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
2 cups biscuit mix
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon parsley flakes

Mix all ingredients well to ensure even distribution of flavors.

Instructions

Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, biscuit mix, cheese, milk, garlic powder, and parsley. Mix until a dough forms.

Form Balls

Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Serve

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!

These sausage balls are best served warm and can be paired with your favorite dipping sauce.

Serving Suggestions

These sausage balls are fantastic on their own, but why not take them up a notch? Serve them with a side of warm, homemade honey mustard or a zesty marinara sauce for dipping. The contrast of flavors will delight your palate and keep your guests coming back for more.

For a more substantial meal, pair your sausage balls with a fresh green salad or some roasted vegetables. The freshness of the salad complements the rich flavors of the sausage, making for a balanced and satisfying dining experience.

Nutritional Information

While these sausage balls are undeniably delicious, it's good to be mindful of their nutritional content. Each ball is packed with protein from the sausage and cheese, making them a filling snack. However, they are best enjoyed in moderation, especially if you're watching your calorie intake.

To make this dish a bit healthier, consider using reduced-fat cheese and lean sausage options. Additionally, serving them alongside a variety of fresh veggies can enhance the overall nutritional profile, allowing you to indulge without the guilt.
